Digital TV
Are you prepared for the digital switchover in 2010/11? If you have not converted your TV to digital by that date you will not be able to continue watching your favourite programmes.
It is very unlikely that you will need to replace your existing TV unless you want to but you will need a digital box (via aerial, satellite dish or cable). However if you are thinking of upgrading your current set consider getting a TV with a digital box built in (a "digital TV") and look for the 'digital tick' logo .
And don't forget your video recorder. If you use a video (VCR) or a DVD recorder for recording you will still be able to record and play back tapes/DVDs as before. But, if you want to record one digital channel while you are watching another, you'll need a digital TV recorder with one or more digital tuners (Freeview Playback, Sky+ or ntl:Telewest TV Drive).
Be careful in case anyone misleads you into buying more new equipment than you really need.
